You'd probably be happier with something like Berkeley DB. PG isn't really designed for that sort of thing --- just to start with, you don't want to point it at flash RAM as "disk" storage, because your flash RAM life expectancy of ~10000 write cycles won't last long. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
